Are You Cold? It Might Be More Than Just The Weather! [LIST]

Everyone gets cold during winter, and with the sub zero temperatures we have heading our way this week, it's especially true.  But did you know there are other reasons you may be feeling cold, no matter the temperature?  Here are some other things that can make you cold.

• Not Eating Enough. Your body is better at dealing with the cold when you've had enough to eat.  The same goes with staying hydrated.
• Medications. Drugs that treat high blood pressure can make you more sensitive to the cold, as can different medical conditions.
• Being Over 60. Not much you can do about it, but here's why:  Shivering is your body's way of keeping warm by making your muscles spasm.  But as you age, it doesn't work as well.
• Being Used To Warm Weather. If you live somewhere warm, but visit someplace cold, your body doesn't react as well.  Researchers say that this is all mental, and will change over time.

Good luck staying warm this winter!
